We would be grateful if you could take a moment to think of a few superb candidates actively working in the sectors or countries you know well. They must be truly exceptional mid-career practitioners (in any field except academia), speak fluent English, and must hold non-US citizenship. Who are the most remarkable, mid-career individuals you know of in business, politics, government, the media, public health, or other field? Who is making a real impact on his or her industry, community, or country? Who has the necessary enthusiasm and charisma to take full advantage of and attract attention at Yale? These are some of the qualities we try to evaluate, and I would encourage you to ask the same questions of any candidates you may think of nominating.
You may nominate candidates online at
https://apply.yale.edu/worldfellows/Nominate. The nomination deadline is December 15, 2009 for the fall 2010 program. To discuss the Program or any specific candidates in more detail, please feel free to email me or call me at 203-432-1916.
For those who are selected, Yale covers all costs (including housing, health care, and transportation) and provides a generous stipend for other living expenses. For a full description of the Program, you may visit the website at: http://www.yale.edu/worldfellows .
Many thanks in advance for your consideration.
